Geographic Information Services (GIS)

GIS enhances the Information Technology Services (ITS) Department’s vision to provide technology through a safe and secure environment, by ensuring mapping technology to securely connect, collaborate, and innovate.

GIS provides storage, maintenance, licensing, training, and other mapping/spatial/analytic services to support the Town and staff, consistent with the mission of ITS. GIS can also deliver the Town’s mapping data for use by citizens, the development community, and other governmental agencies with online applications or by completing a request form.

Online property searches within Apex or anywhere in Wake County may also be performed by using Wake County's iMAPS online application. (iMAPS searches do not require a request form.)
